December 23, 2012 For the first time, I attended the "rutabaga curling" event in Ithaca at the Farmer's Market. I saw 5 other friends there, none of whom had ever seen the event before. It was fun and quirky, as one might expect. It was cold-ish, as one might expect. And people were dressed up in fun costumes (as one might suspect if one thought about this sort of event for a moment). Just before going, I grabbed my camera, figuring there might be some photo opportunities. There were. I took a picture of this guy, dressed up as...something. His torch was smoldering, it had been lit earlier, I guess. And after taking this picture, the battery in my camera went dead and I could take no more pictures. Oh well. It simplifies how many pictures I have to sort through in order to decide what I want to include here. |

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random
sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes
just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly
scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also
am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated
it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of
people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title
provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind
if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search
engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.
Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox
properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't.
I don't care.
